How do I stay in solidarity with Palestine on campus? Nikeeta gives 4 suggestions for engaging political work at universities.
1) Find out what sort of political organizing is already happening on your campus and how receptive students have been, and how engaged students are in the work on the campus are. 2) The second thing is connecting to and finding others that feel the same way you do about the issue.
3) Students have been playing a very important key role in Boycott, Divestment Sanctions (BDS) movement in pushing their universities to cut ties with Israel. Look at Students for Justice in Palestine.
4) Mondoweiss which is a progressive media outlet that covers issues related to the fight against Israeli occupation, 2016 article a group of Italian students doing BDS organizing. It would be good to find out if there are students at nearby universities who you could talk to and link up with.
